Hey, I DO have the patience to make clothes out of string!!

Well, here we go...my first knitted piece of clothing! (If you don't count the hats.) I seamed it together and added the buttons this evening while waiting for students and watching the news reports of all of the hurricane fun that's headed my way. While I'm hoping that the neckline will still straighten out a bit, I'm pleased with the results overall. And glad that I managed to finish it while it's still summer!

So now I need to figure out what to do with the 3/4 or so of a ball of this sparkly blue stuff that I have left. Maybe a pair of simple handwarmers, like these? Or these? Or perhaps a cowl ofsomesort, if I wanted to change up the look of this top and make it look more like a turtleneck? Not that I need to figure it out right away. I have other things I'd rather make first.
